Great job to all and much deserved.
Think they have to move away from FB getting a spot for themselves since most teams don't operate with a FB on most downs. Maybe remove that and have a Flex Spot or bunch with the TE. That way someone like Bonnet for NDSU whom is a great FB can still get on the list, but is open to a 3rd RB or WR. I say this as Lance is a 1st Team guy, but not on the 1st team and I get why with the numbers Warrum and Wieneke put up. It's a passing game for the most part.
Other thing about the list is Taylor. Totally fine with him being on the 2nd team, but he was 1 or 2 LB's on the Defensive POY award. Finished 3rd in that, but a second team performer. Can't argue with the guys on the 1st team, but just odd.
